I Wish

I Wish -Jesse Boykins III
I could tell by the way she held me
By the way she held me
She was looking for love
She was she was
A beautiful woman living her life
But how lonely she was
So alone so alone
I can tell by the way she glanced at me
I always caught her staring
She was a little afraid
So scared
Afraid of expressin her true feelings
But her body language always gave it away
Gave it away
I wish I could be the man she ran to
Man she ran too
I wish I could be the man she yearned for
She yearned for
I wish I could be the man she dreamt of
I wish I could be the one
Be the one
Now I could tell by the conversations
She was willing to grow
She was willing to grow
Take the time out to learn some things
And Id take the time out to show
And I could tell by the long goodbyes
She say never really wanted to leave me
She never really wanted to leave me
And I could tell you a lot of things
I think I know
But I wouldnt be sure till she tells me
Tells me
If only
Shes given and gives herself to me
These visions are more than make believe
If only I had a chance
I wish to simply help her understand
I wish
We were more than friends
I wish too make the aching end
Oh I wish
I wish
I wish
I wish I could be the man she ran to
I wish I could be the man she yearned for
She yearned for only me
I wish I could be the man she dreamt of
I wish I could be the one
Be the one
Be the one
Be the one
